Haye agrees to straight 50/50 spilt.

Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by Toontoon, Dec 21, 2010.

  1. :nono Not so. From an article in the guardian...

    But Booth told the Guardian: "I have been negotiating with Bernd Boente, Wladimir Klitschko's manager, and two days ago I offered him a 50-50 split of everything, including the British pay-per-view money. And that the fight could be on RTL [the German TV station] and could be held anywhere they wanted to make the most revenue, including in Germany.

    How about you wait and see what Team Wlad have to say about this? Or do you just tend to believe the first thing you see and read?

    Awesome! Despite the SkySports article claiming Haye may now be un-willing to travel outside the UK, this is coming straight from Booth's mouth! Fair play to him. Let's wait and see what the Klitschkos come back with.

    I can really see Haye pulling off the upset here.

    If the fight finally does get made my prediction is either Haye by KO in the early-mid rounds, or Wlad by late KO (after a couple of hundred jabs).

    However if it does go to a decision Wlad wins it.

    Haye's got a great chance. He shouldn't be dismissed so easily.

    I've actually heard and read more positive news coming out of Hayes camp about this bout, than I have for a long time...ever since that Ringside episode.

    He may have actually been backed into a corner/thinks he's ready for the bout (seen as he may be retiring this year)...and he may also be fed up of the media getting on his back, including some of the British media, boxing experts.

    I hope they're genuine this time.

    It's been a funny few weeks for Klitnuthuggers.

    Wlad suffering a bad back and having to postpone a fight and now this.

    So why didnt he just do this last year?

    Haye and Booth simply cannot be taken at face value.

    There will be another excuse mark my words. This is just PR to make it look like Wlad is ducking when in reality Haye just wants to fight bums for big money on his own terms.


    There WILL be another clever excuse! Another question is...WHY will they not entertain fighting Vitali before Wlad?

    You're desperate for Haye to look bad, aren't you? :lol:

    If Wlad had come out with these terms and Haye hadn't accepted, you'd be asking why not. I guarantee that.

    Wlad may have wound Haye up as much as Haye wound Wlad up...

    When he said earlier this year that he would prefer to fight Vitali everyone was on Haye's back saying he was ducking Wlad.

    It seems unless he agrees to fight both at the same time then people will think he's avoiding one of them..
